I love the color theme!
pics are too tiny though...
And if you were to paint that woodgrain matching red with the seats and the body, that would be hott.

Car looks good, painting the WG would be great, I love the CF, Gun Metal and smoked corners theme, that's the same theme I'm doing

Thanks for the feedback. I also am not a fan of the woodgrain. I'm probably going to get it wrapped or paint it. I recently installed powersteering and AC. The car is running pretty good, last night I stomped up on a SRT4 neon.

They are s2k seats. I'm still running with the turbo H. I put down 212 whp, but that was before I did some upgrades. The downpipe that came with the greddy kit was like 1.25 inches in diameter. The biggest I could go was 2.5 with the exisiting flange. Its breathing alot better, but still needs a retune. i've been loving the a/c though, probably more than the turbo. Its been a hot summer down here.

Thanks again everyone for the compliments. The car is a blast to drive. H22 lsd tranny's gears are a lil too short, but the acceleration is awesome. It gets to 130 pretty quick. As for the wheels they are temporary, I got them on a trade and thought they looked better than the stock lude wheels.

No I didn't... I put the red trunk back on. The grill is painted charcoal metallic, no chrome.

Yeah I was kinda disappointed myself. I had a coulple of things working against me, plus tuning a car in 100 degree weather sucks. Hopefully with the retune I should pull some better numbers. Its definitely all in the tune with turbo.

He's really persistant...lol
